Abstract excerpt
Cytokine production in fat tissue plays a key role in insulin resistance. The aim of study is to know the phenotypic changes of adipocytes with high fat-induced insulin resistance. High fat intake induced the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) in visceral fat tissue as well as development of insulin resistance. Analysis of the gene expression profiles in adipocytes showed that high fat intake...
